Old Mattress Disposal & Removal

mattress disposal in Austin at duke's junk recycling

Residential & Commercial Mattress Recycling 

When something is thrown away at a landfill, it is buried underground with lots of other trash. Over time most of this garbage will decompose, but that process can take thousands of years and release harmful chemicals into the environment as an item breaks down. Recycling drastically cuts down the amount of trash going to landfills by turning certain items into new products instead of discarding them. This saves space in landfills, lessens the harmful impacts of waste on the environment, and reduces the amount of new materials and energy needed to make new products. Duke’s Junk Recycling offers junk removal in Austin including old mattress disposal and removal in Austin, Texas, and is proud to recycle every mattress that comes through our facility.

Recycling is especially important for mattresses because mattresses take up a lot of room in landfills. A single Queen size mattress and box spring take up about 65 cubic feet of space. In that same amount of space, you could fit almost 40 kitchen size trash bags. That’s a lot of waste!

Mattresses are also bad for landfills because they often contain materials that will leach harmful chemicals into the ground and water supply near the landfill as they break down. Recycling a mattress turns it into materials that can be reused instead of left to decompose in the ground and potentially contaminate the environment.
